    Almost Balanced

     

    Both ends of my mind

    lit.

    Ceremoniously still

    until awakened by alarms,

    the other side could suddenly empty.

    Locked in teetering,

    a suspended dance,

    always digging for control,

    nothing but blue jeans and

    cotton to help anchor -

    the far edges of me

    do not agree, do not resign,

    so after all this,

    reality might not win.

    I have to call in a mediator, when both ends get going at the same time, and when all three want to argue. Reality steps outside,... good read it took three times for it to all sink in.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
